Windmills E-Bike Tour from Amsterdam to Zaanse Schans: A Journey Through Dutch Countryside and Heritage
Discover the beauty of the Dutch countryside on this unforgettable Windmills E-Bike Tour from Amsterdam to Zaanse Schans. Begin by crossing the River IJ by ferry, then ride along scenic dikes and canals, pedaling beneath expansive skies as you pass quaint green-painted houses unique to this area. Your guide will share fascinating stories about this traditional Dutch landscape.
As you approach Zaandam, stop for a perfect photo at the fairytale-like InnTel hotel before continuing north. Your first sight of the iconic windmills at Zaanse Schans will be a true “wow” moment, as they rise majestically across the water. Once in the historic village, you’ll have time to explore windmills, a cheese farm, a clog workshop, and charming museums, including the oldest supermarket in the Netherlands. With spots to grab a snack and plenty of history to uncover, it’s a true Dutch experience!
On the way back, ride through the serene countryside, passing the medieval hamlet of Haaldersbroek and the beautiful Twiske nature park. A quick ferry ride over the IJ brings you back to the heart of Amsterdam, completing your journey through time and tradition.
